Thanks guys problem solved Cummins make a system used in marine applications a digital display that monitors the engine and checks all fluid levels for the QD series.Now save your cans and help me pay for it  :^ :^ takes 8 weeks to get the system for my QD 12500,I should have the fan belt on by then it is a real PITA to install why Cummins did that for a fan is beyond me putting a belt where you need to remove the generator to change a 10 dollar fan belt

I read how you can replace the belt with generator in frame. With genny slid forward, you're supposed to be able to sit behind it to get at the belt...I carry a spare belt, and don't look forward to changing it. They say the belt lasts a long time. Is yours bad?

I was just going to change it for maintaince reasons,I don't see how you could change that belt from the rear myself,do you know if the worm drive on the generator slide has a shear key ?

I just took my 12 k genny ( power tech )  out as my rad is junk so while I am waiting for the rad and some other parts I went over everything and yes there is no way to get at the belt on mine up until you remove all the sides and top and middle genny supports . what a pain in the as$ and this was after I removed it from the coach

changed oil , glow plugs all filters and the BELT and found a bad connector that I had to redo . plus redid some of the things that I did not like how " they " installed the genny in the coach . as why would you ever want to work on it ? why not just buy another coach at that time ?

lots of fun but at least I am at home
